  "Children of Simon de Senlis, by Isabel of Leicester:
  i. SIMON DE SENLIS, Earl of Northampton, son and heir, born about 1138. He was a minor at his father's death and remained in ward to the king for about five years. He married ALICE DE GANT [see GANT 2.i.a], daughter and heiress of Gilbert de Gant, Earl of Lincoln, by Rohese, daughter of Richard Fitz Gilbert [de Clare] [see GANT 2.i for her ancestry]. They had one son, Simon, who died young. Sometime before 1163 he confirmed his father's grant in Merton, Oxfordshire to the Templars. He and his wife, Alice, issued two confirmation charters to Stixwould Priory c.1155-60. In 1174 he was recognized as Earl of Huntingdon. As Simon, Earl of Huntingdon, he granted to the monks of Wardon, Bedfordshire a certain road as they had it on the day he came to the Siege of Huntingdon. SIMON DE SENLIS, Earl of Huntingdon and Northampton, died in June 1184. He was buried in St. Andrew's Priory, Northampton, to which he was a benefactor. His widow, Alice, died in 1185. She gave the mills of Folkingham, Lincolnshire to Sempinghan Priory, Lincolnshire in order that she might be buried there, but it appears she was instead buried at Bridlington Priory, Yorkshire.
